In addition to natural ice rinks, natural ice will form on flooded meadows, floodplains and ditches. But, Weeronline warns, the ice there can often be unreliable. “This is because the water level will slowly drop and this will cause air to end up under the ice instead of water. Because there is quite a bit of wind, ice growth will be difficult on larger water surfaces.”
